CHICAGO -- RWJ Management Company and its employees have joined together in a concentrated effort to support breast cancer research. RWJ owns and operates BP ampm convenience stores and gasoline stations in the Chicago area.

The company has begun a three-month fundraising program to support the efforts of Tammy Albor, a manager at their ampm located in Crestwood, Ill. Tammy??s mother was recently diagnosed with breast cancer and Tammy will be Walking for the Cure in Chicago on Aug. 5-8, in honor of her mother.

"We are proud to support this worthwhile cause because this terrible disease affects every one of us or our families at some point" said Deborah Cox, RWJ operations manager, in a press release.

One of the local BP jobbers, Parent Petroleum, has also joined with RWJ in this cause. Customers can stop by any of the RWJ or Parent Petroleum BP ampm locations to donate to this effort.
